This year has been a continuous struggle searching for<br />
Nurses. We have been unable to find RN’s, but have hired a<br />
group of LPN’s.<br />
Another challenge has been in finding RN’s that are equally<br />
skilled in supervising employees. We are in the process of<br />
reclassifying a position to be a Health Program Manager.<br />
This new position will help open up the field to those that<br />
specialize in Health Care combined with Personnel<br />
Management.<br />
With the diverse group of employees we have at the 24 hour<br />
facility there are continuing personnel issues. There is an<br />
incredible amount of time and energy spent resolving these<br />
issues, to strive for a more harmonious atmosphere.<br />
Further, our state personnel system challenges our ability<br />
to address those issues.<br />
